Beckett Galloway-Chapa 3rd Period, Park in Tokyo Closed After Radiation Spot Discovered

     In a children's park near central Tokyo, a "hot-spot" of radiation has been discovered. radiation dose of 480 microsieverts per hour was recorded in Ikebukuro Honcho Densha no Mieru Koen park in a residential area near Tobu Railway Co.’s Shimo-Itabashi Station on April 23.

     Reports say that some sort of nuclear waste must have been buried there, the highest points of radiation coming from a particular spot extremely close to a children's play set. It is still unsure whether or not this was done on purpose. However, the area has been fenced off and officials claim it will not hurt the health of any visitors at the moment as it is steadily growing weaker.

  2. It's strange that the radiation spot would have gone undetected, especially in a public park owned by a big city where there should be regular safety inspections...
